When the few outstanding bills are paid, the treasurers report showed, only a few dollars will remain in the treasury. Over seven hundred dollars was raised with the cooperation of civic clubs and townspeople by the band mothers organization during the past two years. Out of this amount the uniforms were purchased and the band students were taken to Provo last month to hear the Navy band concert. One new uniform was ordered last week, the price of which is included in the expenditures shown in the report. Seven uniforms were taken to Salt Lake City by Mr. Brockbank for alterations. There will be no charge for this however, as a provision for this was made in the agreement at the time of purchase. In the absence of Mrs. Leland Hair, president, Mrs. Roy A. Schonian conducted the meeting. Mr. Van 'Wagoner, band master, accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Daryl Smith, played a clarinet solo, which was enthusiastically received by the women. Mr. Van Wagoner announced that the band would hold a concert just before Christmas vacation. John II. Jones To Head Tabiona Town Board John H.

They began their canvass in some sections Thursday afternoon. The drive is underway in all sections of the county which is divided according to L. D. S. stakes. The quota for Duchesne has been set at $85.00. Citizens are urged to do their bit to put the roll call over the top. Duchesne has never had a major disaster, fortunately, and may never have one, it was pointed out, but if such a thing ever happens, full Red Cross aid will be made available as it has been made available in other sections in the country without thought of remuneration. In the meanwhile, fifty per cent of the funds collected by the membership drive will be kept in the local treasury to be used for local needs. More than 80 coast to coast radio programs will carry Red Cross membership appeals during Roll Call, it was announced at national headquarters of the organization in Washington. Membership appeals, it was explained will be included in virtually broadcast to every nation-wid- e support the greatest membership Roll Call in 20 years.
